POLICE INTELLIGENCE,—This day. BOW-STREET. POST•OFFICE ROBBERY.—Henry William Spencer, letter-carrier, was placed at the bar charged with stealing two letters, the property of the Postmaster-General. Letter—carrier No. 23 said he had been in the post-office 27 years, The prisoner assisted in the sorting of letters previous to his leaving the office to deliver the letters. Last evening he was engaged in dividing the letters into different classes. After he had finished he took up his own packet of letters for delivery i❑ Lower Thames-street. He then saw him " trying" the letters, and having selected one he saw him place it between the folds of a French newspaper. He (witness) immediately reported what he had seen to his superior officer, and then left the office to deliver his letters. Walter Smee, the constable attached to the post-office, said he stopped the prisoner last night as he was leaving the gate of the building. He took him to Garde.er's pri vate room under the office. He had a bag of letters with him. Mr Chare, one of the inspectors of letter-carriers at the General Post Office, said he was present, in Mr Gardner's room when the prisoner was brought in by Smee. He took possession of the prisoner's letter bag, and found a French newspaper amongst the bundle of letters, within the folds of which he discovered two letters. One was addressed to " Valentine Wright, 95, Fleet-stree:,, City of London," and the other Messrs Waterton and Son, Birchin-lane. He asked him how the letters came into the newspaper, and he said he knew nothing about them. The two letters are not in the prisoner's delivery. They belong to the classes whom the prisoner, previous to his leaving the Post Office, was engaged in sorting. Mr. Gardner, one of the senior clerks of the Post Office, said—Smee, the officer, brought the prisoner into his room last night. Ile saw the last witness take the two letters produced from the folds of a newspaper. The corners of cne of the letters had been torn, so that it could be seen to contain postage stamps. The letter of Mesrs. Waterton, on being opened was found to contain 117 penny postage stamps. The letter of Mr Wright contained two directed envelopes with a postage stamp attached. The prisoner who denied all knowledge of the letters being within the newspaper, was fully committed for trial. WESTMINSTER. SINGULAR CHARGE OF BlGAMY.—Richard Batley, a man about 40 years of age, of very forbidding appearance, was placed at the bar, before Mr Selfe, charged with felo niously intermarrying with Priscilla Moffatt, his former wife being alive at the time. The second wife was put into the witness-box and, being sworn, was about to give evidence, when Mr Salfe said he would not hear her testimony until he had had proof of the first marriage. The second wife, a tall and rather a flee woman, then stood down, and Mr Selfe inquired where Sarah White, whose name appeared - on the police-sheet as a witness, was. Mr Hawkes, an inspector of the B division, said that she was a very aged woman, 75 years old, and was unable to attend. She was the mother of the prisoner. The second wife said that if she had time given her she could produce the necessary evidence. She was proceeding to make a statement, when. Mr Self e repeated he could not hear her. Daniel Marsham, 116 F, said he was in James-street, Covent-garden, last night, when the second wife came up and said she wanted a man taken into custody for bigamy. Shortly afterwards the prisoner came out of a house in Hart street, and the second wife charged him with unlawfully marrying her. She said that if time was allowed she (Luld prosecute, and she then produced two certificates. The certificates were then handed to the magistrate. The first related to the marriage of Henry Batley to Elizabeth Inay, at South Hackney Church, on May 19, 1838, and the second, of Richard Henry Batley with Priscilla Moffatt, in Australia, on the 11th of July, 1810. Mr Selfe—Did the prisoner say anything when taken into custody ? Witness—He did not deny it. Prisoner—l say nothing about it now—let the case be proved against me. Witness—He said he certainly had been living with an other woman, and, when the certificate of the first marriage was produced, did not deny that she was his wife. Mr Selfe—What evidence is there, even supposing you identify him as the husband in the first marriage, that the first wife was alive when he married the second ? Second wife— She was seen alive six years after he mar ried me. Mr Selfe said the case ought not to have been brought before him. It must be taken before the magistrate of the district where prisoner was apprehended. MARLBOROUGH-STREE F. EMBEZZLEMENT.—Francis Titchner, carman, in the employ of Mr Edwin Chesney, wino and beer merchant, of No. 19, Blenheim-street, Oxford-street, was charged before Mr Yardley with embaLling the sum of £3 received on account of his employer. Mr Chesney, said that on the 12th inst. he gave the pri soner some goods, to the amount of £3, and a receipted bill for the same, to deliver to a customer, named Allum, in Craven-street, Strand. The prisoner delivered the goods, received the money, and returned, but never handed the money over as he should have done, and he had since ab • seated himself from his employ. Davidson, 301 A, said that in consequence of a commu nication from Mr Chesney, he apprehended the prisoner at No. 25, Nassau-street, Middlesex Hospital, when ho said he knew nothing about the money, and that he had never received it. George Webb, clerk and traveller to Mr Allum, of Craven-street, Strand, proved paying the prisoner the sum of X 3. Mr Yardley committed the prisoner, who still denied re ceiving the money, for trial. The prisoner asked to have some money found upon him given up, but Mr Yardley refused the application, stating that it evidently was part of the money for Mr Chesney. THAMES. THE ELDERLY APPRENTICE —John Delmage, a tall and powerful man, apparently about 24 or 25 years of age, appeared before Mr Partridge charged with assaulting Mr James Morton. Mr Charles Young, solicitor, in opening the case, said the complainant managed the business of his uncle, Mr Robert Morton, ship and anchor smith, of 331, Wapping high-street, The defendant was an apprentice. Mr Partridge—An apprentice; he is a very elderly one. Mr C. Young—He is considerably above the legal age, but, it is right to state, he has not taken advantage of that, and intends to serve out his seven years apprenticeship ; but he has taken advantage of his height and strength to commit a violent assault on his master's nephew and manager. It appeared that on Saturday last, when:the complainant paid the apprentice his week's wages, he stopped a small portion of them for two hours' absence in the course of the week. The defendant went into the office and angrily de manded of the complainant what he meant by the stoppage, on which Mr James Morton said he had lost a part of the week. The defendant said he was a liar, used other abusive language, and on being ordered to leave the office, refused to do so, and struck the complainant a violent blow on the breast. Mr Morton would have fallen if he had not stage gered against the wall. He then endeavoured to stop th elderly apprentice from leaving. The defendant aimed another blow at him, which the complainant parried, and the former then rushed out of the office. Mark Garrard, clerk to Mr Robert Morton, confirmed the statement of the complainant, and said that the defendant boasted that he understood vulgar fractions better than Mr James Morton, and that 5-lOths of a penny was exactly 6el (Laughter.) Mr Robert Morton stated that he saw the defendants fist up, and said, " John what are you doing," on which he ran into the smith's office. The apprentice had been guilty of many irregularities of late, which he had overlooked, as he was nearly out of his time. Mr Joseph Smith, solicitor, said the blow, as it was called, was only a push, that the defendant had been treated harshly, and that this was a very small matter. Mr Partridge could not agree this was a small matter. It was a serious one. The defendant was already of full ago, and had been treated with indulgence by his master, who had given his evidence very fairly. The defendant, if he behaved steadily and well, would have hands under him, and would expect subordination, of which he had exhibited a lamentable deficiency in the violent, intempe rate, and unseemly attack on his master's nephew and manager. It was a bad assault. - He fined the defendant 10s. and costs. The money was paid. THE TIN PLATE TRADE.--The quarterly meeting of the tin platemakers has b 3en held at the Queen's Ifotel, Cheltenham, Mr Woodruffe, of the Machen Works, Mon mouthshire, presiding on the occasion. About 25 makers were either present or represented, and from the discussion which took place as to the position and prospects of the trade it appeared that no material alteration had taken place since the last meeting, with the exception that the American demand had fallen oil considerably again. There was a fair inquiry from other foreign markets, and the orders on home account were upon the whole moderately good. As to prices one opinion prevailed, and that was that the present state of the trade did not warrant an advance, and it was unanimously resolved that the quotations agreed to at the July meeting should he confirmed. Tho late drought has caused a reduction in the make, and in conse quence the stock of finished tin plates and block plates in manulacturera' hands was not large. After the meeting the members dined together. The City Lands Committee, in pursuance of a resolution of the Court of Common Council, have permitted the National Temperance League to arrange for holding a meeting in the Guildhall on the Monday evening after Lord Mayor's-day. The Lord Mayor elect, we understand, has agreed to take the chair. The course of exchange at New York on London for bills at 60 days' sight is quoted 278 to 280 per cent., and the pre mium on gold 157 to 1581 per cent. Gold still contlnues to be imported in very moderate quantities. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE—This Day. CITY BETTING.—Tnis DAY.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. (Before Mr Registrar Winslow, acting as Commissioner.) IN AU SOPHIA TT.IBBS. Tbis was an application for an order of discharge, and also release from custody. The case was of a very singular nature. It appears that the bankrupt and her mother, who is an aged lady, took some premises of a Mrs Robinson. This was in 1861; but afterwards a Mr Robinson appeared, amongst others, as claimants of the property, and the bankrupt and her mother became involved in the dispute, and, as they refused to give up possession, an action was brought against them and judgment recovered; but during the dispute a forcible possession, with violence, had been taken, and the parties making the possession were sentenced to various punish ments, from three to six months' imprisonment. The bankrupt and her mother retained possession, and when made bankrupt persisted in doing so. This was the fourth application for release, the late Commissioner Fane having refused to grant it until the bankrupt had given up pos session. The bankrupt was now asked whether she would give up possession to the assignees, but she would not make any pro, mi.° and the official assigne e sa id h e wou ld rat h er not tAke possession under a disputed title. His Honour granted the order of discharge, but reserved judgment as to the release until Wednesday next. IN DE W. H. WINDHAM. To day was appointed for the last examination and dis charge of this bankrupt, described as of Westbourne terrace, gentleman. Mr Lawrance, for the assignees, said no accounts had yet been filed, but no doubt they would be in a few days. He believed that they would be undisputed. It was, there fore, thought advisable to take a short adjournment, to which Mr Chidley, Mr Brougb, and other gentlemen assented. The meeting was accordingly adjourned till the 231 of November next.

FORGOTTEN PICTURES.—.We often wonder what becomes of all the pictures painted every year in Loudon—not of those works which are sold to, and stowed by, bona fide purchasers, nor of those more popular works which become the property of dealers and dealing•mollectors —for these are continually being passed from hand to hand, bartered, exc h a nged, sold by auction, copied by me ans o f engraving, u ntil at length their intrinsic merit be comes t h e real test of their value, and they either find an honourable resting-place in some permanent collection or disappear among their less notorious contemporaries. Neither do we speak of portraits, of which we know the f a t e tolerably well. These are usually commissioned and paid for, and are destined to be hung on the walls of a dining - room, dumb and polite witnesses of many good dinners, and subjects of inexpressible annoyance to the paintervi.h when he happ ens t o dine with the originals, who think it their duty to improve the occasion among the guests on his behalf, and to subject him to a running commentary on the accuracy of the re semblances. If of any value as Nvorks of ar t , the pictures will retain their places and grow into ancestral p ortra i ts ; i f not, they will be displaced by likenesses of th e gran d son and his wife, and be consign ed to the walls of some spare bedroom, or be turned with their faces t o the wall of a de serted attic, where they may rest undistur bed till some day of e general rhaps, f rah clearance sor cower, t lime at t when a broker's chalk-mark indicating. t h e ir value--generally from eight een they shop, with a whit e will again be seen , pence to a sovereign.— The .Reaaer. THE AMERICAN BLOCNADE.—New York, Oct. 1. —A letter from the Federal steamer Niphor, dated off Now inlet, N.C., Sept. 26, reports that on the previous day she discovered a long steamer painted white, w i t h two smoke stacks and two masts coming out of Swash Channel, She gave chase and fired into her several times, but she escaped. Another Federal steamer however overhauled the blockade runner and chased her aground off Half Moon Battery, where she was set on fii o by her and destroy e d, IMPORTS OF CONFEDERATE COTTON.—In our commercial intelligence we give a return of th e i m p or t s o f Southern cotton into England du rin g the month of Sep tember. The total quantity received Was 11,534 bales. The imports of the Confederate tobacco during the same period was 495 boxes. The returns are nearly, but not quite, complete. Confederate produce has come in small quantities from other ports.-1 he Index. THE COLOSSAL BRONZE STATUE OF YOUNG HERCULES, recently discovered at Rome, has, says the Reader, been completely exhumed. The workmanship is evidently of the best period, and not, as has been surmised by Signor Pinceltatti, of the end of the third century. Signor Pincellotti would have us look upon the statue as that of the Emperor .Maximian—Maximitinus Ilerculeus—but the entire absence of the coarse Dacian features of that emperor does not seem to warrant the conjecture.

(From the Sporting Gazette.) A prevailing topic of conversation during the week at Newmarket has been the great change made in his racing establishment by Lord Glasgow, for whom Torn Dawson is no longer trainer, nor Aidcroft jockey. Many rumours were afloat respecting the " why and the wherefore;" and as er roneous statements may go forth to the world, we are in a position to lay the precise facts before the public. Tho hollow defeat of Lord Glasgow's filly by Young Mel bourne in a 300 soya sweepstakes, on Monday last, by Aline created far greater astonishment to her noble owner than the public at large, who lost their money on the race by betting 3 to 1 and 7 to 2 on the loser; and without having been asked for an explanation, Aldcroft sought Lord Glasgow, and volunteered the information that the mare had "lost her action, and couldn't move:' To assure himself, as far as possible, of the truth of that statement, Lord Glasgow, after the races, had the mare stripped and galloped on the Warren Hill, when she went "as free as a bird;" and on Dawson, in answer to a question to that effect, assuring his lordship that it was her regular action, Lord Glasgow fur ther determined to try her as well, when she did the same thing with the Senorita colt that she had accomplished the day before. Lord Glasgow thereupon desired Dawson to order Aldcroft to send in his cap and jacket. The following evening a misunderstanding arose between master and trainer on a totally different matter, which re sulted in the termination of Dawson's engagement. The horses were placed under Wm. Arnull's charge for the re mainder of the meeting, except General Peel, who is still trained by John Scott ; and Wells and Fordham rode for Lord Glasgow in all races after Monday. His lordship has not arranged his plans for the future ; but a portion of his stud will be trained by John Scott at Whitehall. RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE. SOUTH-EASTERN.

DEVON AND SOMERSET. The ceremony of cutting the'first sod of this new railway was performed by Lady Poltimore, in the presence of a large number of spectators, near Southmulto❑ (North Devon), on Tuesday. The pro jected line will be about 43 miles in length, and will open up a rich agricultural country hitherto almost unapproachable. The line starts from the Bristol and Exeter Railway near Taunton, and proceeds on to Barnstaple, passing through or near the towns of 111iiverton. Wineliscombe, Bampton, Dulverton, and Southmolton. The line is to be continued on to Ilfracombe, under powers granted to the com pany, en the passing of an Act last session, to bee. come joint owne•s wigs the Loudon and South- Wstern C.impatay of the Ilfracombe undertaking. A banquet followed the ceremony of turning the first sod, at which Lord Poltimore presided. DE 11ERARA.

There was an improved feeling pervading the market to-day, especially during the afternoon, when it was known that the Bank directors had separated without raising I.he rate of discount, some having antici pated a still further advance; but, although the tone was improved, there was little or no business done. Trans actions must be reported on a most limited scale ; prices aro unchanged, It a stapler was determined to force a sale, he was obliged to submit to a reduction in price. The principal staplers, however, held to their stocks, main taining with tenacity the prices of last week. There was a general conviction that improvement is not far distant. The same feeling pervaded the other branches of the trade, with the like inactivity. Some few spinners are still engaged in working on old contracts. Most, however, are without orders, and diminishing production to the utmost. Prices were very irregul ar . Th e p i ece t ra d e was, i f anyth i ng, slightly improved. Manufacturers of mohair, glaces, and lenos received some orders. The home merchants were looking round to see what was intended for spring. Prices were without change. SAD TERMINATION TO A LONG COURTSHIP.— On Wednesday a female named Ellen O'Snee Coyne died in the Middlesex Hoapital under the following circaru stances :—lt appears that the deceased was to have been married on Tuesday morning to a man with whom she had kept company, it is said, for about 16 years ; but her in tended husband having postpone! the wedding on the gronod that he was unable to keep a wife, it preyed upon deceased's mind, and on Tuesday, the morning on which she was to have been wade a wife, she went to a chemist's in Wurdour-street and purchased some uquafortis, which she swallowed on reaching her home. S me time after she was found in a state of great suffering, and was taken to the Middlesex Hospital. She, notwithstanding every attention was paid her by the medical officers of that in stiution, expired yesterday in excruciating agony. A man named Demand was yesterday tried by the Tribunal of Correctional Police on a charge of illegally hawking cigars. The prisoner, as state d at the time, was arrested in tlae Place de la Bourse while offering i to sell what he called smuggled cigars, and packets contain ing 575 were found on his parson. He asked sf, per packet of 25 cig ars , p re t en di ng them to be of very superior quality, though they were in reality only the ordinary Isous cigars, which had been wetted and flatten ed, to give them a foreign appearance. The prisoner stated, in his defence, that a stronger whom he met in the P l a ce St. Michel asked him to sell the cigars, and that he had consented, not thinking he was doing any harm. The Tribunrl, consider ing this explanation unsatisfactory condemned the pri soner to pay a fine of 300 f, or to be imprisoned six =laths in case of non-payment. SECOND EDITION. bUti OFFICE, HALF-PAST 4 O'CLOCK. PRUSSIA AND DENMARK. The Feudal organs of Berlin deny that the Diet is a competent tribunal in matters relating to the successio❑ of the Duchies, and propose that each of the nine principal Governments of the Confedera tion should name a jurisconsult to form a commis. sion, to give an opinion on the question, leaving the ultimate decision to the Diet. The essential point is to arrive at a sp?edy solution, in order to deliver the populations from the uncertainty which Lea now hung over them for nearly twelve months. THIRD EDITION SUN OFFICE, SIX O'CLOCK. THE BOMBAY AND MAURITIUS MAILS, SOUTHAMPTON, Oct. 15. The Peninsular and Oriental Company's steamer Delta, with the above mails, has arrived here. S.he brings 68 passengers, £7,864 in specie, pearls value 10,000 rupees, and a general cargo, including 800 live quails. Oa the 6th inst. she passed the steamer Delhi, and on the 11th an Austrian frigate and a steam ram steering south. On the 25th ult. the brig Alfred, of Shoreham, sprung a leak, and sunk at sea. The crew was picked up by the Italian brig Due Fratelle, and landed at Gibraltar. Yellow Fever at Bermuda. The Montreal Herald of September 24th, says— " Not many days ago it was our duty to mention the departure from this country of a number of military surgeons ordered to Bermuda, to render such poor aid as medical skill can afford to the many sufferers in that island attacked by yellow fever. On Saturday official information was received here which renders it only too certain that Dr Clarke, who was in service at Quebec, and Dr Milroy, of the 30th Regiment, forming part of the garrison here, have succumbed before the fatal epidemic. Surgeon-Major Barrow has also been taken down by disease, but we believe that in his case the attack was complicated by dysentery, which ac• cording to Southern traditions, tends to weaken the influence of the more destructive malady, and at - last accounts he was reported to be recovering. Dr. Ferguson. also of the 30th has been attacked, and was not out of danger when the est advices came away. Dr. Harrison, R.A., &Is been reported among the victims ; but we are glad to have reason to think that this report is so far erroneous. Still, out of 11 surgeons who left this city on the 17:h ult., we have had within 30 days the intelligence that five have been assailed by the fever, and that two, if not three, have died. As an example of the extreme suddenness and viru lence of the attacks, it is mentioned that when the steamer St. George was leaving the island on her last trip five men rowing to the vessel in one boat were attacked before they came alongside, and had to put back and go into hospital. We regret to say that we have received a communication, stating that not only were the steps which every well-informed person understands to be usual and efficient for preventing or mitigating such calami. ties omitted, but also that the advice of scientific men, professionally tendered, was disregarded. The use of open air lodgings on high and dry ground, in an atmosphere fresh from contamination, is thoroughly understood by every civilian, and in frequent instances bodies of troops attacked by pestilence of one kind or another have ceased to lose a man from the moment that they were marched out of barracks to bivouac on the turf and live out of doors, free float the death dealing miasma of their close and infected quarters. Yet it would appear from the information furnished by our correspondent that this well•known method of saving the lives of soldiers did not suggest itself and when suggested by others was rejected by an officer sufficiently experienced and high in rank to have military command of the station, and that the men were kept encamped on low ground, and the military hospital not only not disused (as was advised by the medical officers), but over crowded, though its walls were impregnated with yellow fever poison. For the sake of an old officer, and of the service to which he belongs, we must express a sincere hope that there were some circumstances not known to the gentleman who has written to us. We learn that the fever was conveyed to Bermuda, where it is a very un. fr.( quent visitor, by the blockade runners. They have also taken it to Nassau, where it is raging almost as badly as at Bermuda. The crews of these vessels have also themselves suffered very severely from the disease, and some of them are left without officers or crew, except, perhaps, a solitary negro cook or seaman."

GENERAL HAMPTON.—General Hampton's late foray upon Grant's beeves furnishes our army with I,ooo,ooo—some say nearly 2,ooo,ooo—pounds of the best beef which the Yankee markets afford, and will feed them fall for some time, General Hampton is understood to be General Lee's Master of Horse. He is in the prime of life, of a strong natural understanding, considerably cultivated, of immense physical strength and activity, of wonderful en durance, and inexhaustible energy. He has been all his life passionately addicted to field sports and woodcraft, in both of which ho is said to excel moat men of his day. One faculty; of the last importance to an officer holding such a command as his, he is said to possess in a very remarkable degree — that, namely, of becoming acquainted instantly, and amost instinctively, with all the features cf whatever loeality he may happen to pass over. We have heard it said if he wore blindfolded and carried over 30 miles into a forest in which her had never been before, he would find oat where he was in five minutes after the removal of the bandage. He never camps a day in a neighbourhood without making himself suffi ciently acquainted with all the roads, bye-roads, and hog paths, to act as a guide. General Hampton possesses another qualification very important in a cavalry officer, and yet Aot always possessed by good cavalry officers. He is passicru ately 'ond of horses, and an uncommonly fine judge of theme takes a pleasure in studying their nature and wants, and thus affirds the best guarantee that ho will make his men attend to them. When we add that be is a sphnelid rider, a practical swordsman, and an excellent shut, but above all, that he is What Carlyle calls "an earnest man," devoted with ad the deep enthusiasm of his nature to the cause in a; hich he is engaged, we have said enough, we think, ,` , ;:t show that the cavalry of General Lee's army is in very good hands.—Richnioad Desp6tch.
